Inspired by the Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun, Clybourne Park comically and unflinchingly explores race, segregation and gentrification in a fictional Chicago neighborhood. The play begins in 1959 as a black family prepares to move into an exclusively white part of town. Act Two returns to the same house fifty years later, as gentrification sets in and the roles are reversed. An ensemble of actors play completely different characters in each act of this Pulitzer prize-winning comedy/drama.
